by default the LPD service on XP is set to manual. Make sure you change
this in the Services Control Manager to Automatic. Also if the a firewall
is enabled on XP you have to open port 515 on the XP system.
Is the UNIX machine connecting over lp or samba?

We have a Unix app which will print to HP LJ IF the printer is a
printserver, but will NOT print to a Ljet physically attached to an XP
computer. (Unix print services has been installed.) The same Unix app will
print to LJ's attached to Win98 computers.
